Leak repair in Baytown, TX

Baytown sits along the San Jacinto River and Galveston Bay, with soft, wet soil that shifts through the year. That movement stresses pipes under slab foundations, and slab leaks are a frequent call here. A high water bill with no change in use is often the first clue.

Many homes in Goose Creek, Cedar Bayou, Wooster and Pirates Cove were built from the 1960s through the 1990s. Some have galvanized lines, polybutylene pipe or copper that has pitted with age. These pipes fail at joints, and the leak can sit under the slab for weeks.

We check the meter, test pressure and use listening and thermal tools to find the leak. You get three choices in writing: spot repair, reroute through the attic or tunnel under the slab. We will tell you which is likely to last.

Bayside homes may also see leaks from freeze damage, from fast-growing roots and from storms. If you have flooding, we can check supply lines and water heaters before you restore power. Insurance often wants a plumber’s report, and we write one.
